This archive contains a DOS full install of mechwarrior 2 using the CD version labeled "Windows 95 / MS-DOS 1.1". You will still need the corresponding CD to play the game.

This folder includes a modified MW2.EXE file, patched as per the instructions here:
https://gist.github.com/anpage/9b5ec3d72200117e224b2e696e8b4280

This seems to fix the problem with jump-jets not recharging at high framerates. Now you can play on Dosbox with cycles at a high fixed value or set to auto without continuously cycling up and down to recharge your jumpjets while keeping a smooth frame-rate.

The problem was that this patch only works with this specific CD version of the game:
https://archive.org/details/MechWarrior231stCenturyCombatUSAWindows95MSDOS

But the 1.1 CD reportedly has some music tracks out of order. So I also tested this install folder using my own CD version of mechwarrior-2 (Dos only, volume label "MECH2_16B") and it worked too! So you might also try this folder with your own CD, to have the audio tracks play in the right order, and to avoid downloading the entire 1.1 version CD image.

Credits and thanks to the original author of the patch (Alex Page).
